As more educators and researchers have begun to try to understand all the elements of the human experience that are affected by gaming, we are going to need to grapple with preserving and distributing these works.

I have been fairly vocal asking why they didn't offer gaming for us grownups, but they haven't done anything yet. We 30-somethings like games, too!! To their credit, the library does circulate games, but it seems like the good ones are always checked out...
